Seasonal advance of intense tropical cyclones in a warming climate Seasonal tropical cyclones (TC) are occurring more often and with more intensity than ever before. The article's patterns make it quite evident that as global warming and other climate-related issues worsen, there are more TC’s every year. So, what are cyclones and why are they forming so often nowadays? It originates from a warm tropical water with a centre of low pressure and strong winds that can reach about 119 km/hr. Additionally, it is related to torrential rain. With huge volumes of water rising in the air as vapours, ultimately producing storm clouds due to high temperatures over tropical oceans. It frequently peaks in the fall rather than the summer and are more common in some regions, for instance north Pacific basin. Such tropical cyclones are mostly caused by greenhouse gases. These gases are also one of the main causes of global warming, which affects almost every aspect of the ecosystem and global warming further causes the rise of these intense tropical cyclones. This negative feedback loop related to greenhouse gases, global warming and TC’s is affecting our ecosystem considerably. Also, the use of fossil fuels increases the amount of heat in the atmosphere, which in turn increases the temperature of the earth, which then drives the development of cyclones and hurricanes. Every year, there are more tropical cyclones than ever before. Due to several factors, tropical cyclone intensity is increasing. Ocean warming is one of the primary causes of TC’s. The relative humidity is causing the cyclones to strengthen quickly, and researchers are continuously working together to find out what is intensifying these cyclones. Destructive cyclones can lead to emergent possibilities. Important resources, plants, animal habitats, and even human beings may be lost because of the damage caused by cyclones. Everything could possibly end up in the country's economy failing. Following cyclone-related flash floods, a lot of domestic and industrial garbage may enter neighbouring water bodies, harming aquatic life. After a season, TC's were not thought to be returning. The possibility of their happening simultaneously, however, may decrease owing to the seasonal progression of tropical cyclones, which might have severe repercussions on the human population and aquatic animals. Although we cannot stop these cyclones, we may at least try to lessen their causes by using fewer fossil fuels and keeping ecological balance.
